Abstract
A semi-automated system () suitable for use in a hospital setting for filling patient-specific liquid medication prescriptions from bulk medicine containers () into oral/enteral syringes (S) for administration on a just-in-time basis. The system enables hospital pharmacists to simplify and streamline their task, increasing the number of prescriptions that can be filled in a day, improving patient safety and care by minimizing medication errors and the consequences that ensue.
